Winter & Spring Break 2008-09

Thank you for your interest in becoming a staff member for an Oranim trip for Winter & Spring Break 2008-09 which runs from November 2008 through March 2009. Oranim brought over 10,000 participants and over 475 North American staff members to Israel in the past year and we are already preparing for an exciting Winter & Spring Break 2008-09 season. This Winter & Spring Break is on pace to be another large season for Taglit-Birthright Israel and Oranim. We will again need hundreds of North American staff members to staff the trips and we look forward to having you be one of them!

According to official Taglit-Birthright Israel rules, you must be 21 in order staff a birthright trip. To staff a trip this season, you must turn 21 by the time of departure. Please make sure that you sign-up as an Oranim Ambassador and recruit using the Oranim QuickReferral program. Please DO NOT complete the application below if you will not be 21 this winter.

If you recruit 10 participants for this seasons Taglit-Birthright Israel: Oranim trips you will automatically earn a free trip back to Israel regardless of your age (see official Ambassador Guidelines for details).
